- Abstract: Quantum simulations are one of the pillars of quantum technologies. These
simulations provide insight in fields as varied as high energy physics,
many-body physics, or cosmology to name only a few. Several platforms, ranging
from ultracold-atoms to superconducting circuits through trapped ions have been
proposed as quantum simulators. This article reviews recent developments in
another well established platform for quantum simulations: polaritons in
semiconductor microcavities. These quasiparticles obey a nonlinear
Schr\"odigner equation (NLSE), and their propagation in the medium can be
understood in terms of quantum hydrodynamics. As such, they are considered as
"fluids of light". The challenge of quantum simulations is the engineering of
configurations in which the potential energy and the nonlinear interactions in
the NLSE can be controlled. Here, we revisit some landmark experiments with
polaritons in microcavities, discuss how the various properties of these
systems may be used in quantum simulations, and highlight the richness of
polariton systems to explore non-equilibrium physics
